    I agree, it doesn’t resemble typical AI generated content in appearance. It does in form though. It’s like the most “I’ve seen pieces of a train, but I don’t understand what a train looks like or how it works” drawing I’ve ever seen. If the flame is at the back, how would that work with the entire rest of the engine (the cylinder at the front)? Why do the linkages not make sense.

    If this is made by an autistic train fan, this is incredibly wrong. If it’s made by a person joking about them, it’s slightly more forgivable (but still, I don’t think anyone wouldn’t understand the Steam comes from the front).

    You’re right, the perfect edges and perfect circles and all of that make me think it’s not AI slop at first, but even the least careful person I don’t think would make this many stupid mistakes. They’re mistakes you’d expect for something that knows that the shape is statistically expected from trains, but it doesn’t have any understanding of why.

        Yeah, I know of that, and I’m aware it happens. Even still, those designs have the concept right. I don’t see how anyone draws the smoke stack on the front of the engine but then, for some reason, draws the Steam coming out the rear. If they didn’t draw it at all then I think it’s reasonable. I just don’t see how you get to the point of the OP.

        It’s like drawing a bike and drawing the pedals, but the chain connect the handlebars to the wheel or something. It’s just not something someone’s going to do. (On that page, literally everyone who included a chain connected it to the pedals. It maybe do weird things, but that basic thing is consistently correct, because you don’t draw pedals and not understand that that’s where the chain connects.) They’ll draw something that doesn’t function, because the don’t understand how a bike works maybe, but there are some basic things everyone knows.
